5.2 woohoo it's june

I very much want to listen to Heat Waves because it's like "late nights in the middle of juuuune" and its JUNE. My comp is on the phone with her family and they're all talking about delicious food and I miss cream puffs and brownies and also pasta salad. But enough with my pity party because Peru is so sick. 


Buenas tardes o noches o días I'm not sure what point of your life you'll be reading this but hiiii! 

Barrio parachico is the best barrio in all of Peru (and my friends who are in this mission can't even argue with me cuz they can't respond lol). But right now there's some weird drama but whatever. 

Put some friends on date this week(pray for Thiago, Alejandro and David...we need it :[] )

Stan and I realized that we really only have a year left which is crazy cuz we just left but we were in the mtc 6 months ago, which means in 6 months it'll be Christmas and then we only have 6 months which is literally how long we've been out so basically my mission is over and I'll be home before you know it. 

Stanley and I have had a very bad habit of speaking in English because it's fun and we have been watching Two Brothers Two (some like random cringe series on lds.org ...hna oler knows)

Had a rainbow party picnic today and played sports and ultimate Frisbee (felt like I was back at pavilion Park and it was awesome) 

Anyways all in all twas a great week. God's been in the details this week for sure, helping us Two clueless gringas figure out how to speak and bring people to christ has been pretty incredible. I've been able to testify a LOT this week which has been a blessing to know this gospel is TRUE. 

I love every single person being ever in Peru and you all back home too! Go give someone a hug for me and eat some chick fil a ...u deserve it

6.9 All I want is to dry my clothes in a dryer

This week was an absolute whirlwind. Like i feel like pday was yesterday but last tuesday was like at least a month ago. TIME IS SO WEIRD ON THE MISH but bueno.  Ill be so honest my camera roll right now is full of screenshots of pme (my missionary scheduling app) and random.phone numbers im supposed to remember so there might not be much content...props to.hermana de hoyos for actually taking photos.  We're finally starting to see some progress here, we didnt even have a day this week with more than an hour of finding (which is huuuuge cuz usually We're knocking and calling for a good 3 or 4 hours). It makes me so joyous and also.worried that prez is gonna boot me out of here next transfer which would be so emo because there are some mega cool people we have progressing!  I thought i was getting less tired but i guess not because i started saying comp prayer the other day to start our study and fell asleep mid oracion so that was embarrassing. My comp just stared at me t...

6.11 Better than disneyland

Image
I am so bad at writing emails which is so lame I'm sorry I really don't do Peru justicia.  This week was like disneyland for me. We got to go to the temple.  I love God's house. He really has such good interior design style. And holy moly being able to participate in an endowment (a special like learning ordinance) IN SPANISH I was giddy. I'm a dork I know.  BUT anyways I was very happy. Speaking of happy things. Valentina got baptized this week. My heart was marshmellowy, she bore her testimony and said she couldn't be more grateful for the example we as missionaries have given her. Best compliment in the world. We asked her how she felt after and she Goes "normal". Ay que te pasa but her brother wants to learn more now because of her :)) My poor comp was DYING last week so we did an emergency division and she went to independencia with the hermana leader who threw up in district council...and all the elders were coughing...so they all were giving each ot...

3.1 Best Ways to Dissapoint Peruvians

Image
I'm writing this email in my casa en PERU!!! LOCO. I still can't really believe I'm here haha!  I don't have much to say, but we have a great ffa program lined up. *name that film* But seriously my mind is un poco fried and so it's difícil to even remember what happened since a week ago I was in Ohio.  But to start I need to tell you how gringo i feel. I want to speak Spanish so BAD with the ward and especially my cutie compañera hma Bautista. Ella es de la Republica Dominicana!!!! My heart!!! She's so fun and cool and walks into traffic like it's nothing. And I am oblivious to traffic, am a head taller than everyone, and stand around like a dunce when someone asks me a question. I totally understand what people are saying until they ask me something simple like where are you from and all of a sudden I have yogurt for brains (which you drink here BTW. I've been doing that forever tho since I always forgot spoons for my lunch) Hence the first reason I dis...
